Lithograph of a painting of a beautiful spotted wildcat, reclining with one rear leg high in the air because she is in the process of grooming her genitals.

I was looking up images to show someone the differences between bobcats and lynx, and discovered that THIS is how John Audubon chose to portray the female Texan Lynx in 1851. Rude! aradernyc.com/products/aud...

Small brass butterfly.

Small brass butterfly.

The underside of the butterfly, which has little pockets to store sewing needle packets. The underside of the wings are decorated with two plates. One carries an inscription of the drapers company:  "Copestake, Moore, Crampton & Co. - London." The other has a gilded head of Minerva, the Roman goddess of wisdom, art, trade, and war.

The butterfly can be folded up, like how a butterfly flaps its wings.

Beautiful 1860s Victorian butterfly, which was used to store small packets of sewing needles on the underside of the wings. This was a collaboration between a London-based drapers company and a sewing needle manufacturer. On exhibit at Tatter Blue, a Brooklyn textile museum.

Random DEATH BECOMES HER doodles during a rewatch because if I don't put this movie on at least once a year I'll -- and this is true -- die.

The last card for the Vampire's Tarot has been turned in. 78 illustrations completed this year for my fifth and final tarot deck.

My wrist hurts ⚰️

Hopefully I'll soon have news from the publisher about release dates, so stay tuned

They zip-tied disabled people for speaking out against Medicaid cuts. That’s not a glitch, it’s the system working as designed. Our comrades showed courage, and the state responded with fear and violence. Strike Back!

A neon-hued illustration of a three eyed, two faced, one brained cat, using Posca pens. The drawing has been printed onto a vinyl die-cut sticker.

This is a drawing of Frank and Louie—AKA "Frankenlouie"—the world's oldest recorded janus cat, a condition in which one is born with two faces (craniofacial duplication). He was a ragdoll with a laidback personality; he liked car rides and leashed walks.💕 etsy.me/3D3h44O

Precious garbage angel. This is probably what Francie looked like when @melissainglover.bsky.social first found her! Photo from my collection, no date/info.

Illustration inspired by Poe's "The Black Cat" depicting a woman in a mint green dress seated before a cold empty fireplace with her back to the viewer. She is holding a one-eyed black cat that is looking over her shoulder at the viewer. The room has a large window that looks outside onto fields where a bare tree sits with a noose hanging from a branch. The sun is setting.

A black edit of Howl I made, the scene where he mis-dyes his hair, with long blonde hair, short blonde hair and long black hair. I gave him dreads, green hair and dark skin and piercings/noserings.

Two photos of a longhaired grey tuxedo cat outside on a lawn. The photo have been masked and printed into curved diamond shaped pieces of photo paper.

I’m always so happy when I find sets of photos that I can keep together, but is so extra special. I’ve never seen kitty photos printed into little shapes like this!

Rewatching Fincher's THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO. It has two Christmases, which is one more Christmas than most Christmas movies. Take this into consideration when you pick holiday movies.
